This is probably the most juvenile-ly written article on the subject I have ever read (and I have read many!).

As well as errors of fact there is a virtual absence of understanding of basic scientific principles at work in the ennvironment.

A lamentable misunderstanding of the word Diversity, of the basic principles of ecology, and of elementary natural history.

I imagine this Mercosur article is taken virtually verbatim from a European Sunday magazine article - if it were taken from eg New Scientist it would at least have the science right.
